Mediation: The next big leap in judicial reforms

The International Centre for Alternative Dispute Resolution is organising a one-day conclave in Chandigarh on April 21.

Dr. H.R. Bhardwaj, Union Minister for Law and Justice shall inaugurate this Conference, with many judges of the Supreme Court of India, Chief Justice and other judges of the Panjab and Haryana High Court participating.

This is the next best option for the litigants to find prompt redressal of their grievances through out-of-court settlement. Already Delhi, and Maharashtra have set up the ADR (Alternate Dispute Resolution) courts.

The organisers and the participants at the Chandigarh conference look forward to having similar ADR court in the city.
